Whatsup everyone here to maybe get some advice on signing on with a company. I have several offers but have narrowed them down drastically. My main focus is a company that will work with the Army Reserve schedule I have.
So far my offers of interest are: CRETE/SHAFFER
TRANS AM
PRIME Inc.
Averitt Express
Billy Barnes Enterprises (Local and Regional Wood Chip hauling company, 3 divisions, very respectable IMO)
I have an interview with Averitt scheduled next Friday, webcam they say, so we'll see how it goes. So any opinions lay em on me!

Well you can choose any company last year werner got fined 5k per soldiers for not getting them on time during hurricane Irene, companies are required by law to have you on time for drill under any circumstances. So don't worry been there done that... Matter fact still doing it

How are you soilder??? I was in the Army as an 88mic! Just about all companies will work with you. If you were thinking of getting in hot shotting or RV towing with 3/4 and 1tons

what ruckie said is correct u can go to work with any company that will hire u. when u get hired on get a copy of ur drill weeks give it to ur superviser and remind them when ur on the road that u need to be hm on the that weekend. ur job is protected under the ussra act which means they cant pentlize u for doin ur commentment. when i was lookin to go back otr the companys i talked to said they would get me hm but it would count as my hm time.
SPC WHIGHAM Thanks this.
